Nutmilk Extraction Bag

Abstract

A nut milk extraction bag having two parallel inner compartments. The body of the bag is made from two opposable, polymer, fluid impermeable side sheets having a polymer mesh central sheet continuously affixed across the axial width and near the proximal end of one of the side sheets and continually joined across the axial width near the distal end of the other side sheet. The body of the mesh sheet is free to move between the side sheets. The side edges of all three sheets are continually joined and the distal end of the two side sheets are also continually joined. Across the proximal edge of two side sheets is a reuseable seal. The bag is divided into two volume adjustable inner compartments about its longitudinal axis. A sealable, pourable spout is affixed at the distal end of the bag.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is as follows: 
     
         1 . A nut milk extraction bag, comprising:
 a first fluid impermeable side sheet having a first proximal end, a first distal end, a first left edge and a first right side edge;   an opposable fluid impermeable second side sheet having a second proximal end, a second distal end, a left second side edge and a right second side edge;   a moveable, fluid permeable central mesh panel having a third proximal end, a third distal end, a third left side edge and a third right side edge;   a pour spout affixed at said first and second distal ends; and   a reuseable seal operationally engageable between said first proximal end and said second proximal end; wherein   said mesh panel resides sandwiched between said first side sheet and said second side sheet such that said third proximal end is continually sealed to said first side sheet and said third distal end is continually sealed to said second side sheet, and said all right side edges are continually sealed together and said all left side edges are continually sealed together such that said mesh panel divides said bag into a first inner compartment and a second inner, adjacent compartment separated by said mesh panel.   
     
     
         2 . The nut milk extraction bag of  claim 1  wherein said pour spout further comprises:
 a cylindrical body having a distal end and a proximal end; and 
 an udder shaped cap matingly engageable with said cylindrical body and rotatable on said cylindrical between an open and closed flow position. 
 
     
     
         3 . The nut milk extraction bag of  claim 2  wherein said pour spout has a pair of heat sealable wings extending normally therefrom, said heat sealable wings having a series of gusset ribs extending normally between said body and said heat sealable wings. 
     
     
         4 . The nut milk extraction bag of  claim 3  wherein said udder shaped cap has a hemispherical body with a central orifice therein and with three nipples extending therefrom, said nipples spaced 120 radial degrees apart, with one of said nipples having a longitudinal bore formed there through, said bore intersecting said central orifice in said hemispherical body. 
     
     
         5 . The nut milk extraction bag of  claim 1  wherein each compartment has one wall of a fluid permeable mesh panel and one wall of a fluid impermeable sheet. 
     
     
         6 . The nut milk extraction bag of  claim 5  wherein said third proximal end is sealed adjacent to said first proximal end and said third distal end is sealed between said second distal end and said second proximal end. 
     
     
         7 . The nut milk extraction bag wherein said first fluid impermeable side sheet and said second fluid impermeable side sheet are made of a polymer that can be frozen, microwaved, boiled, refrigerated, and washed. 
     
     
         8 . The nut milk extraction bag of  claim 1  wherein said first fluid impermeable side sheet and said second fluid impermeable side sheet are made of a polyethylene/nylon plastic in the range of 2-6 mil thick. 
     
     
         9 . The milk nut extraction bag of  claim 1  wherein said first compartment has a variable volumetric capacity.
